You my friend are a genius! that did it for me " title="Applause" /> Big thank you from Iceland

Hello everyone I have this problem that I haven´t come across before, I have set up multible NVR´s in last couple of years and now I have this problem: I have opened ports on router and can connect and view everything fine using either android or pc, however when it comes to look at recording in pc this shows up ( see attached pic ). Timeline is gone and nothing works!? Also in the beginning I had a problem open the http (8080 or 8181 ) port for NVR but got it opened at the end, port 443 shows closed by portchecker I also tried to port forward 443. On another location I have the same problem meaning that remote recording displays the same as this one and does not work! I have even changed the NVR once and thougt maybie this was becuse of faulty NVR. Has anyone had experience like that ? regards

Hello guys I hope someone can share his knowledge about the issue. Customers (and me) want to be able to have a live view stream from the monitor 24/7, however screen logs off and cameras dissapear! I know this can be adjusted, but in config of the NVR only 60 min max. There has got to be way to make the NVR monitor stay constantly on?! Regards Eythor

No Im afraid not, camera windows are still viewable upon the screen but you will need to log in again i order to get camera onscreen again. This is weird function, you can config screen to stay for up to 60 min max?! Anyone please?

No one?! well ok, I heard that this could be a firmware issue? And I was suggested to install older firmware in order to fix this, but really ? help please regards Eythor

bluestar ... better late than never - thank you for your reply

year ago I did a project and everything worked just fine, but all of a sudden now when I try to log in to the Dahua hybrid using my pc remotely ( wich has always worked perfectly in the past until now ) it only showes me this screen: So my question is why ?

Well I just had to make some adjustment to I think it was manage add on´s ...or what ever - thank you guys for the pointers, otherwise I wouldn´t have tried it I guess.

Yes you are right this is from chrome browser, but I never use chrome - I always use internet explorer, but yes this how it comes up very time. I just type in ip adress in browser and this site comes up, it doesn´t ask for user and password ?

Ok guys ( and girls?) here it goes: I have a new project coming up and this is my setup, but I am getting little bit worried about my plan and whether it will work as planned. Distance from cameras (located at harbour) to house is aprox 350 yards This is wireless project -using Ubiquiti NanoStation Loco M5 for point to point ( with a clear view of sight ) This is my choice of cameras : http://www.kingdisplay.net/products/573.html#.Uq4x6FtdWSo ...and for some stupid reason this was my choice of NVR : http://www.kingdisplay.net/products/471.html#.Uq4yNFtdWSo My question´s are as follow : can I use this NVR for recording / and viewing 3mp cameras ( 4pcs) ? I know it records in 1080p and only is able to be viewed in 1920X1080 at most, but I was hoping to be able to look at videos perhaps from the internal 32G sd cards in 3mp resolution if god would forbid something to happen wich needed more clear video? And for more clarification, is this true- higher mp cameras offer the ability of clearer picture with zoom in but are in general bound to 1080p resolutions of monitors? thank you..

I´d give this a look : http://www.ubnt.com/nanostationloco ...and if you don´t have a clear line of sight, -you can add more to maneuver around obsticals.

Hi, I am curious did you manage to solve the reboot problem on the Dahua dvr´s hybrid? I have the same issue, hybrid reboots once every other month or so, really doesn´t cause any major problems ( and I already unchecked the option of reboot in auto maintenance) . But my problem still is this: I have a lcd monitor with special setup in a another location for bar owners to watch over the place whilst preparing food. When system reboots, the monitor resets itself, you can see every camera on the screen - but special setup feature has to be setup manually again and again and afdnakfb sdfjdflnvlknv dvndnv ! best regards Eythor all the way from Iceland

Hi guys, I installed Dahua hybrid and everything worked like a charm, then I changed passwords and created account ( as you do) - gave everybody hi five and went home. The pc was then turned off ( because of closing time) and back on the following morning.... and no video on the PSS anymore??! Does anybody here know how to restart or well at least get the cameras back on screen?? *Note viewing remotely ( pc, android ) works well as it did before, it´s just that we can´t view anymore using PSS?? help please

Ok, I understand this and belive me I have fixed this on my NVR at home wich I was playing with few weeks ago and like now lost connection with few IPC2100 cameras (wasn´t able to view with PSS ) . Maybie I should try to change to this PSS software version, you see the DVR came with PSS software cd, but according to the guy ( bar co-owner ) their pc has no cd drive so we installed PSS software from Dahua webpage. Needless to say and to my surprise it was another version ( gray-ish) don´t know the version but different from wich comes with DVR. Do you know where I can download this version ( like screenshot) ? I should be able to manually add this DVR hybrid or have the program auto-add it , put in username and password, the go up screen right side and drag the cameras over ...right?

thank you very much for your prompt reply vector18, yes ok I did understand you correctly then as I entered of course the password twice ( aka-confirm ) Is there a way to reset PSS ? start over again ? ..I already tried to uninstalll it and install again but no luck This shouldn´t be rocket science damn it ( pardon my language) If you can post step by step instruction I will love you man hehe

Well after spending almost 2 hours trying to figure this out I´m still not able to make this work -vector18 what do you mean by "...enter it in confirm"? Also, is it possible to block out PSS viewing with dvr adjustment? If I remember correctly the first time I installed the PSS software it picked up the DVR automatically. ...an idea is it possible that couple of switches could be blocking the pc (firewall) ? ...jesus I´m out on a limb here guys hehehe I think I have like 6 or 7 hour invested in this by now and I left the place early this evening using viewing over LAN, just to keep the guys satisfied

Hi vector18, not a silly question at all- yes after 1 or 2 attempts to login using default admin/admin I tried using the new username and password wich I had configured on the dvr, and I am able to login to the PSS just not able to see those cameras on screen. But I am a little bit green that being my first install and setup so spare with me Ok just to clarify, login to PSS is just like hmmm... login using dmss lite or whatever- just an independent program ? But if so why then did it change after fiddling with dvr ?

Hi guys and thank you for the response, After reading my post again I can see that it could need further and better explaining hehe . The customers are using the the pc only (PSS) for viewing ( monitor ), also they can connect using internet or phone. I just thought it to be strange that we can not no longer view these cameras after pc was turned off and on again?? They had always turned the pc off and on again with no problem and with PSS back on screen, but when I changed passwords and users on dvr hybrid it became a problem. I had this issue on my Dahua NVR few days ago where I wasn´t longer able to view cameras ( after fiddling with PSS ) but then cameras had this red triangle over them and I was able to fix that. Cameras on the PSS software with my customer have a red circular thingy over them ( maybe just because they are using different version of PSS - I don´t know ? ) Does changing password and such on dvr´s have affect on the PSS software ? First, right after they called me and told me that they weren´t able to view using pc as monitor as they were able before I thougt to myself : " hmmm.... oh yeah of course, I changed the password and usernames yesterday on the dvr and now in the meantime they had turned the pc off and on again. And because the PSS tries to autologin by default usernames and password ... it can´t, so I have to login be using the new admin ( or whatever) to able PSS again " - But still no image

...anyone??! please

Thank´s for the advise - regarding the wireless point to point solution then this was exactly what I had in mind.

Hi guys I pretty new at this so I am looking for advice here. A farmer asked me for remote ptz viewing setup to be able to look after his sheep, the distance is over 150m so I´m going for wireless solution here ( wi-fi ) and that should not be a problem. But in order to be able to control the ptz camera via pc/phone(standalone no dvr) ...well what can I do? No experience in installing PTZ cameras...yet are we talking about somethign like this ? http://www.surveillance-spy-cameras.com/network-webcam.htm

Hi guys I hope you can help me out here, First question is : power button ( with the blue light around it) when you press it for 3 sec like manual says in order to shut it down, shouldn´t I notice any change on the NVR when I´m doing it ( because nothing seem to happen when I press it and I know that cutting power of without doing this might damage the HDD- am I right? ) I have a 7200rpm seagate disk in it and I just want to know if it´s normal to be so loud- (if you know what I mean -Dahua recommends 7200rpm ) I have a 42 inch plasma tv and when using the HDMI caple I did not receive anything upon my tv !? - but works well with VGA I was trying it out via LAN yesterday and it worked like a charm ( using PSS). Not sure what happened next but when I went away and came back to play more I wasn´t longer able to connect to the camera : ....I remember invalid password ...locked out ..bla bla bla.. Is there any way to reset/restart pss ( already tried uninstalling PSS) ..or well any ideas at all ?? kind regards Eythor ( I am from the land of ice and snow Iceland so pardon my english )

Hello everybody, I have a question for you guys- can I use Dahua´s NVR3204-P for for more than just the 4 1.3MP cameras that came with the kit? best regards Eythor

hmmm so once again I am a littlebit confused here, say If I would like to have like 6 ipc-hfw2100 1.3MP cameras on my NVR 3204 system, I could just by adding a switch for more ports? Why then make a 3204,3208 and 3216 ??

Ok, it´s just that they all have 4 Poe ports (3204/3208/3216) ?
